That’s how Ralph Nader closed his third-party presidential campaign today at a small press conference in Washington D.C.’s National Press Club.

What should Bush do on his last day in office? “Surrender.”

Will Obama be able to provide tax cuts to 95 percent of the population? “Impossible.”

What is your opinion of the media? “Servile.”
